I think it might be draining into my throat. I have a really really bad taste in my mouth, I'm at the point where I can't eat anything besides mints bc everything has a bad metalish taste to it. I bled out a bit, but not a lot. I'm using Saline drops and cleaning my nose and I've gotten my airways to open up a bit. The first few days after I was fine, and didn't have this taste, but when my airways started to open up that's when this taste came. Is this normal? I'm actually worried.
